Can you used saved configurations/saved configured bracket orders made from SC DOM or Trading Window within ACSIL study?

Yes. Refer to:
ACSIL Interface Members - Variables and Arrays: sc.TradeWindowConfigFileName

How would you go about using it in setting up trade orders within to be submitted by an ACSIL study? Like, the ACSIL study would use the configuration to send an order out in an ACSIL automated trade study.

We added a code example to the documentation.

I guess my question is really, can you use this configuration in an ACSIL automated trading system study?

How can you send orders directly from ACSIL using the configuration loaded in like in the example?

If you just read the documentation and actually put together an automated trading system, you will be able to accomplish what you want. There is nothing further we can add. The documentation is quite clear.

We are reviewing this and there are couple of improvements we are making with using a trade window configuration file specified by ACSIL. One of them is automatic updating of the Trade Window Configuration list box on the Trade Window and having the change go into immediate effect rather than waiting for an order.

These will be out in the next release.

I see. Final question, I hope. What I guess I am trying to really ask is, can you used these configurations/attached orders with SCNewOrder to programatically send the orders from an ACSIL study?

Yes. In this case you would not use a Trade Window configuration but instead just specify the configuration within this structure: s_SCNewOrder

That would be more sensible and efficient anyway.

Sorry, it seem I have more questions.

Yes. In this case you would not use a Trade Window configuration but instead just specify the configuration within this structure: s_SCNewOrder
Would the
scsf_TradingExampleWithAttachedOrdersDirectlyDefined
in the
tradingsystem.cpp
be a good example of what you are talking about?

That would be more sensible and efficient anyway.

What if the strategy is multi bracket multi oco, but server-side orders will be supported. Will there be any difference in how efficient it would be whether to define it directly in an ACSIL study or use a Trade Window configuration for an ACSIL study to send orders with?

Either way is fine but really there is no practical efficiency difference.
